title: Reaching movements: concurrency of continuous and discrete programming.
abstract: The present study was undertaken to investigate further how human subjects prepare default parameters of reaching movements. Two qualitatively different modes for setting default values of direction are possible (continuous and discrete mode) and there is a threshold visual target separation for continuous or discrete programming. The most prominent finding is that the continuous and discrete modes of programming can be used concurrently.
